Our outstanding technology is one of the many ways our office at Carlsbad Beach Dental, Drew Addy DDS, differs from the rest. There’s so much more you can do for your smile when the right Carlsbad dentist and tools unite for access to dentistry on a new level you never knew possible.

One of the things we talk about in the office is something we want to highlight here today, and that’s our 3-D Digital CT Scanner

What is a dental CT Scan Like?

As our blog title suggests, we want to show you what this unique scanning technology does, but you’ll also want to know about the excellent benefits it brings to you.

We get that you might not think of having a CT scan for your smile, but because this imaging technology has advanced so dramatically, there’s no better option for you and us! Our particular cone beam CT innovation gives Dr. Addy a more in-depth 3-D look at your jaw and what’s happening inside your mouth. Radiation from this type of scanner is significantly reduced compared to traditional x-ray scanning machines at your dentist’s office in Carlsbad.

What About Those Benefits We Mentioned?

Here are some of the ways CT technology can enhance your experience at the dentist:

Benefit #1 – Your CT imagery will allow Dr. Addy to prepare your pre-treatment planning more precisely.

Benefit #2 – Helps create pinpoint dental implant placement or reconstruction of your teeth.

Benefit #3 – Shorter time for you in the dental chair. 

Benefit #4 – We can diagnose and treat tumors and diseases early.

Benefit #5 – See damage potentially caused by any impacted teeth.

The CBCT scan produces some of the highest-quality images you’ll ever see of your nerves, infections, and oral pathology. One single scan gives us much more accurate pictures than we could collect using a traditional x-ray method. 

Our Patients Love our Technology (And You Will Too)

Check out the hundreds of reviews our patients regularly leave online, and you’ll see how impressive and life-changing this technology can truly be.

“I have gone to the same dentist for years, and my hygienist moved, so I wanted to try a new dental office. I am so impressed with Dr. Addy and his staff. Their knowledge and technology blew me away. I am so excited I found a new dental office! I highly recommend Dr. Addy for any dental needs!” – Linda A.
